Hello all.

After looking around on the net i came across this site and after looking in a few post it looks like there is a world of experiance on here so what better place to seek help with my problem.

This is my second scratch build in 5 years and after having no problems with the first i have now come unstuck with the 2nd.

I have put together the following:
MSI P965 Neo mobo
Intel D 820 2.8 GHz Processor
WD 160Gb SATA hard drive
1 Gb PNY DDR2 PC4300
400 Watt PSU
7300GS 256mb Graphics card.

Having followed all documents to make sure i put it together right i come to the testing stage. Switching it on for the first i thought great here we go then off it goes after 15sec's, tried again and again off but this time in about 5-7 Sec's final attempt and off in 2 sec. Dont even have enought time to get into the bios before it switches off :(

Have racked my brain for days and can see no answer. Have tried resetting comos and it reverts back to 15sec etc. I feel this may be a faulty PSU but not sure if its something else.

Please any help would be welcome.
